Ash

Would you like to add ash trees to your property? There are two specific types of ash trees that have become popular among home and business owners. American Mountain Ash (Sorbus americana) trees and European Mountain Ash (Sorbus aucuparia) trees are both great options for those who like the look and feel of ash trees. Cold Stream Farm can supply you with wholesale American Mountain Ash trees and European Mountain Ash trees.

American Mountain Ash (Sorbus americana) trees are native to the northern part of North America and the eastern part of Canada. They typically grow to be about 30 feet tall and can grow in both dry and rocky areas and moist wooded areas. They’re known for having bark that is smooth and grayish, and they produce beautiful leaves and flowers depending on the time of year. They also produce fruit in the fall that stays on the trees all winter long and attracts a wide range of birds, including woodpeckers, robins, grouses, and orioles, as well as squirrels and small rodents.

European Mountain Ash (Sorbus aucuparia) trees are similar to American Mountain Ash (Sorbus americana) trees in many ways. They also grow in dry and rocky areas and moist wooded areas. They have smooth, grayish bark and produce beautiful leaves and flowers, too. But European Mountain Ash (Sorbus aucuparia) trees can grow to be about 65 feet tall, which is more than twice the size of American Mountain Ash (Sorbus americana) trees. Additionally, they produce fruits that can be utilized to make everything from rowanberry wine and flavor mead to ale and cider. They’re more commonly planted than their American counterparts.
